Since I was last on Mudcat. I won't bore you all with the reasons why but they were pretty drastic, but I have just found my personal messages still stored away here from like 1999 to 2002. Did I ever thank Mick Brackn, Alison and Aine for their kindness? Hope they are still dipping in here.

Don't need to thank Singsirish since I've now moved to America and married her. And yes I have a big grin on my face. There are probably a stack of other people here on Mudcat who have helped me in the past. This is a wonderful resource and we should thank Joe and everyone else concerned in keeping running a major thank you.

16 years is a log time and I'm guessing we have lost a few people but we have a brilliant resource here to help each other as well as bitching about stuff. Just remember the helping bit is far more important than the bitching (though that is fun I admit).

Anyone still on here who remembers me from back when and did countless things to help me out, I thank you once again. Anyone else who is in need of musical material, mine is supposed to be docking in New York on Saturday. No idea how long it will be held up in customs but hopefully I'll be able to help answer questions in the very near future. Hopefully also get a new version of Prof's Pages up and running as well.

Yessir, I would love to see Prof's Pages come back to life. I wonder if the old pages are stored at archive.org.

Welcome back, Mick! And congratulations on the marriage.

I think you can go into the "Old Adv. Forum Search" (in the Quick Links drop down menu above) and search the names of old friends on here to see if they are still around. I have to still email Joe my updated information, seeing as how I've a new name!

There is also a thread for musician/singer memorials.

I knew years ago that there was something going on between the two of you....

So, did you meet on Mudcat, or through other channels?

Congratulations to the both of you!

NNOOOOO!!!! I had to meet my wife by the usual route of dating her and convincing her to marry me! Of course, she was on the college faculty and I was a student....

Wonder if you were aware when Catspaw49 passed?
It was a VERY big deal here.
